Does Beer Have a 'Surprising Health Benefit'? Here's What The Science Says

A BBC report on beer’s vitamin B6 content was framed as a health boost, but the underlying study only measured nutrient levels.

The article says there is no evidence that beer improves brain function or overall health, and small vitamin amounts do not make beer healthy.

It argues the claim is a stretch when set against alcohol’s known risks and existing NHS and WHO guidance.
